AFF Training Styles and Client Goals

Feeling good about who you see in the mirror is one of the most common fitness goals, and as your personal trainer, I'm here to help you achieve that. I believe that looking better and feeling better go hand in hand. Getting stronger is a key component to achieving this. Through personalized training, we'll work on progressively increasing your strength, which will naturally improve your appearance. You'll see changes in your shape, better posture, and find that once difficult tasks become much easier. Whether your focus is on enhancing a specific body part like the chest or glutes, or you just want to build overall strength, these goals are not mutually exclusive. At Animal Farm Fitness, my personal training approach ensures that everyone gets stronger and feels great about themselves.

We've all seen those impressive videos on Instagram where incredibly fit people perform challenging exercises. It's easy to think, "If I did that, I would look just like them!" While these workouts can be inspiring, the reality is that many fitness influencers achieved their physiques through consistent, foundational exercises. The key is knowing which exercises truly deliver results and which might not be as effective for your goals.

I eliminate the guesswork and focus on exercises proven by science to help you achieve your desired results. Most of my clients perform various types of squats and deadlifts with perfect form—exercises that are consistently proven to improve strength, physique, and overall quality of life. Many people don't know how to achieve the physique they admire in those videos or which programs will make them genuinely strong. Through personalized training at Animal Farm Fitness, we focus exclusively on exercises and methods that work, ensuring you reach your goals efficiently and effectively.

Many people believe agility training is only for athletes and their specific sports, but this couldn't be further from the truth. Agility exercises provide a fantastic foundation for everyday life. I emphasize the importance of agility training for everyone. Improving foot speed can help prevent trips or slips, enhance bone density in your feet and legs, boost high-level cardio, and enable quick movements.

For those who are aging, agility work can be the difference between a bad fall that leads to serious injury and walking away unscathed. Agility training is beneficial for everyone, and through personalized training sessions, we'll incorporate these vital exercises into your routine to ensure you stay strong, mobile, and safe.

Many people aspire to improve their skills in physical hobbies or community sports like softball, pickleball, tennis, surfing, or golf. As a personal trainer with extensive experience in sports performance, I can help you achieve these goals. By incorporating functional sports fitness into your personal training program, I can significantly enhance your abilities as a weekend warrior. Having trained numerous collegiate-level athletes who have attended prestigious colleges, as well as current professional athletes, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our sessions.

Whether you want to excel in your weekend sport or are just starting out, my personal training approach will help you greatly improve your sports performance, prevent injuries, and give you that extra edge to reach your full potential. With personalized training tailored to your specific needs, you'll feel more confident and capable in your chosen sport.

Everyone dreams of having a nice flat stomach, and some even aim for that elusive six-pack. What many people don’t realize is that abs are built in the kitchen. You could do a thousand crunches a day, but without the right diet, those abs will stay hidden. I focus on both your diet and your workouts to ensure you achieve the results you desire.

In our personal training sessions, we’ll work on abdominal and core workouts designed to strengthen and define your midsection. And when that day comes where you can finally see those muscles, you’ll be thrilled with the results. With the right combination of diet and targeted exercises, you’ll not only build strong abs but also feel confident and accomplished.

Starting a new fitness journey can be daunting, especially if you're new to the gym, worried about injuries, or beginning a post-surgical workout routine. Even pregnant moms might feel unsure about where to start. Many people worry themselves out of ever participating in physical activity, but as your personal trainer, I'm here to help you overcome those fears and start at a pace that's comfortable for you.

Whether you're recovering from a knee injury and need to focus on your upper body, or you're feeling self-conscious about beginning a program due to being overweight, we'll tailor your personal training sessions to your specific needs and concerns. I’ll begin your training wherever you're at and move forward at a pace that challenges you while ensuring your comfort and safety.

As a personal trainer with decades of experience and countless workout experiments under my belt, I understand the frustration of hitting a physical plateau. This journey has equipped me with a wide array of tools to help you break through those barriers. If you’re feeling stuck in your progress, reach out to me, and let’s work together to overcome it.

At Animal Farm Fitness, our focus isn't just on losing weight—it's about losing fat while retaining muscle. Muscle is essential for strength, longevity, good posture, and injury prevention. We understand the goal is to look and feel better without worrying about getting too bulky. Building significant muscle mass requires specific, dedicated work over a long period. My approach ensures that you shed fat effectively, helping you achieve a leaner, stronger body. Let’s work together to achieve your fitness goals in a healthy, sustainable way.
